I came at launch with one goal....to master BH. I did that goal, and kept it for awhile. Then I mastered Pistoleer. Gave pistoleer up and 2 lines (LLC & carbine) and mastered TKM. Original plan was to get 4/0/0/0 TKA with other skills, but I fell in love with TKA, so I mastered it. Now I am left with three templates, and I dont know which one to choose.
1) TKM
4/0/3/0 (or 3/0/4/0) BH
0/0/3/0 Pistoleer
2) TKM
Master Pistoleer
Master Smuggler
3) TKM
Master Commando
1/0/0/0 Scout (or medic)
I enjoy PvE, but would also like to PvP on a regular basis. The main thing in choosing a template for me is the Fun Factor. I did the whole BH thing and I really liked it. I imagine I might go back to MBH later if they get some love and with #1 I will remaster it very fast. I also thought about making this guy a non-BH template, then unlock my second slot and make him the BH template (I do not want to be a jedi). I love TKM, BH, and the little smuggler I did back in the day. Smuggler is getting a revamp which should also make their profession even better. I do not know much about Commando, and whether or not at master it will be fun.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated along with other templates that you find extremely fun. I am open to really any suggestions.
As of now I am a
TKM
4/0/4/0 BH
1/0/1/0 Commando

Well with option 1. you'll be able to track down Jedi with your friends and hunt them. So this might be a fun template. You'll also get some good res vs states thanks to pistoleer but nothing too much since you won't get the very useful posture down and knockdown res from pistoleer xx4x.
Option 2. or the "Trimaster" will let you have fun with smuggler specs and slicing abilities which by themselves are very fun. One of the most fun templates to play in the server.
Option 3. was a FotM some publishes ago, when armor was not so advanced. You could pound someone with flamesingle2 to stick a fire DoT, then dizzy/kd and then pound them again with what you favor best be it punches of waves of flame. Was a killer in PvE also. Still a killer in PvE (not in the new areas though eg. vette, DwB) but not that good in PvP.
To sum all these, prolly option 1. gives the best offensive and defensive capabilities for PvP. You get your geo blaster, spam eye shot, kd them, then spam them again. And you get to hunt jedi. That would be my choice.

I would go with #2 because this is a template that can actually bring in some money while being very powerful in PvE and if used correctly, efficient in PvP. With the smuggler revamp, the smuggler profession will be used more therefore generating more money. Pistoleer strengthens your smuggler professions and adds tons of defense to TKM or if u want to use ranged weapons you have that choice. TKM is excellent for generating money by doing solo group janta missions on Dantooine. You can also heal your own wounds, make spice to buff your self, and use power boost to highten you stats even more so you can eliminate the need for a doctor. All you will have to do is buy brandy. Also, if you enjoy crafting...you cna make crates of spices or smuggler supplies and create a business of selling clamps and muon. I believe this template is one of the best out there (not the best, i don't want to start an argument here), no wonder its called "The Triple Master"

Do option 1.
You love TKA and you love BH. You will enjoy it better.

i would do option 1 but instead of having bh pistols line i would get tech 4 in pistoleer for kd def and put the rest into scout or medic skills. just my humble opinion

But if you keep the pistols line you get torso shot, which to me is still one of teh best specials in the game, but that is just my opinion

This seems to be a tough decision for me. I might have to finish the commando I started, which in turn kind of tests template #3. Then I will head to the tri-master one. I believe my character now looks more like a smuggler than a BH hehe. So my second character can be the BH.

Since you liked BH so much.......and TKA is the greatest Jedi basher.....Try this:
TKM
BH4000
Pistoleer0043
or
TKM
BH3000
Pistoleer0044
16-6 now against Jedi Bounties with a melee/BH temp......

That does seem like a good template with some pistoleer defense/geo cert/fanshot.
I am also very impressed with Ryutek. I havent seen a more active correspondant and I have been to many forums. He is a very good correspondant. I have read almost all if not all at certain times of the posts on the first page and have seen some kind of reply from him.
But if he wants to be great....he will have to reply to this message soo that I can tell that he even reads replies to his original reply :

For the funfactor then option 3. Theres no other weapon that irritated people more then the Launcer Pistol, Flamer does cool stuff to groups of NPCs/PCs. You may not kill them on the fire-dot but youll atleast scare them.
And TKM.. well you said you fell in love with it.. thats why Ive got it to. All around fun.
Option 1 is quite good for being able to support in PvP. You can do things from both ranged and melee.
